Studying Literature provides succinct and accessible answers to these and a host of other questions. This thoroughly revised and expanded edition remains the essential one-volume source of support to take students right through their degree and on to postgraduate study. The authors have used feedback from readers of the widely praised first edition to ensure that Studying Literature remains the most useful single guide that a student of literature can have in their possession. It provides detailed and extensive practical advice on study skills, and the section on the use of electronic resources has been thoroughly updated to cover recent developments in this fast-changing field. The comprehensive glossary covering technical and theoretical terms, and the sections covering literary theories and theorists, have been revised and expanded. This is a book that the student of literature will not want to be without at any time during their undergraduate study - and alter. Above all, this is a book written for lovers of literary works who want to get more from the literature, criticism and theory that they read.
